WYSE BASKETBALL CULTURE ONLINE ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

Player Contract 

The Athlete promises to give 100% this season to the coaches, teammates and parents/guardians that made it possible to participate. The Athlete promises to bring a positive attitude to each practice, scrimmage, or game. The Athlete understands that Club Basketball is a commitment, and players are expected to honor the commitment by attending all practices and games. The Athlete realizes that it is a privilege to play basketball at this level and will not abuse this by taking it for granted. The Athlete understands that violation of these rules as laid out on the Player Code of Conduct page can result in lack of playing time.

​

** If for some reason a player is unable to attend a practice or game, we expect the player or parent to notify the coaches at least 24 hours before the practice or game.

Code of Conduct

In practice and at games, we are a TEAM, and we will work hard together, play hard together, and support each other. During practices – if any coach is talking, balls go down on the floor and eyes go up to the coach. Anyone who can’t follow the rules, the entire team will run or do pushups.

​

We are a team, and we will win as a team, and we will lose as a team. We need to COMMUNICATE, both during practice and during games.

​

Listen to the coaches and trust their decisions. Please do not talk back or be disrespectful in any way, be that verbally or through negative body language. The coaches are here to help you succeed and get better.

Do not complain about playing time. Instead, Athlete will work harder to earn it. Bring 100% effort to every practice and game. By not doing this, the Athlete is not only letting their coaches and teammates down, but also themselves.

Do not worry about how many points you score or any other statistical categories. Instead, concentrate on how the team performs.

​

Bring an open mind to practice every day. Understand that the more you learn, the better you will become.

Be on time to practices and games. Realize that it’s important to be early. Contact coaches if you feel you may be late.

Failure to make the practice directly preceding a game/tournament will have a direct impact on playing time for the next game (i.e. you will not start the next game and may sit the entire 1st half of the game).

​

Pick up teammates, do not put them down. Understand the importance of being a great teammate.

**Athletes may not compete against their WYSE Basketball team in any AAU tournaments. Must receive permission from the director prior to the tournament for any exceptions to this rule

Parent Contract

The Parent/Guardian will fully support the coach and coaching staff this throughout the Season.

The parent/guardian is fully aware that he/she represents the entire WYSE Basketball organization as does their child. He/she will be respectful during games and let the coaches handle the referees and any on-court situations.

​

The parent/guardian gives the coach their full support to run the team the way he/she sees fit. The parent/guardian will follow the chain of command with any problem that may occur and respect the 48hr rule (ie – if you have a problem with a decision the coaches have made or your child’s playing time, you will wait 48hrs before contacting the coach(es). The parent/guardian will abide by these rules and make sure that their child abides by the players’ contract and code of conduct.  The parent/guardian is aware that lack of participation in practice can affect their child’s playing time. The parent/guardian fully understands that all payment is non-refundable, regardless of the circumstance.  No exceptions, including injuries, will be considered. Breach of this contract could result in their child being removed from the team.

** If for some reason a player is unable to attend a practice or game, we expect the player and/or parent to notify the coaches at least 24 hours before the practice or game.
